So yesterday I walk downstairs to get my mail, along with the tons of free magazines and bills I get this.



Since when has the Postal Serivce been sending out such great little safety notices?

Well of course the first thing that I thought of was to post it on here for everyone to partake in the fun.

I start it when my first horrible attempt.



Hopefully someone can do justice to it.

UPDATE

eaglebtc was kind enough to help everyone out with the whole process. Here's what he told me:

quote:

I've got a multi-layer PSD and a RAR with all the fonts for the HelveticaNeue family. They are in OpenType format, which means anyone using Windows 2000 or XP can read them. Or they can download a free font reader.

Contributors should grab the following archive:

http://www.promotionsfd.com/test/usps-goldmine.rar

It contains the layer-separated PSD template, plus the USPS logo (EPS, with emblem reversed) and the font pack necessary for the text.

The PSD template has all layers separated by component: gray box, outline, dog & man, text, top box, etc. Its current size is 1600x1000, approximately. Becuase I made it larger, I redrew the "vector" objects so they would look better at this higher output resolution (150dpi). The text layers are in place, with the correct font selected. The user *must* have the fonts installed before they open the PSD or they will receive a warning.

Oh btw, I'd like to share a link with you: if you ever want a shitload of corporate logos for whatever, visit www.logotypes.ru.

Hope it helps!

It's just a bit of non-sequitor humour. It's okay if you don't get it Pinto, you get other things.

I'll try and make more featuring aromatic testicle based humour in the future.

Not a very bad one, but alot of people make comments about post going missing. I got a mix tape sent to me and that went missing, I've had birthday money gone missing in the post before.
